User-agent: Internet Messaging Program (IMP) H3 (4.1.3)
I started getting the following in my system.log:
Mar 8 07:22:38 pear kernel[0]: arp: 169.254.153.97 moved from
00:11:24:ca:9f:1e to
00:09:b7:13:51:80 on en0
Mar 8 07:34:25 pear kernel[0]: arp: 169.254.66.255 moved from
00:11:24:ca:9f:d4 to
00:09:b7:13:51:80 on en0
Mar 8 14:13:18 pear kernel[0]: arp: 169.254.81.224 moved from
00:11:24:ca:9e:f4 to
00:09:b7:13:51:80 on en0
Followed by about 20 minutes or so of
Mar 8 07:34:26 pear kernel[0]: en0 duplicate IP address 10.40.0.11
sent from address 00:0d:93:9d:31:54
10.40.0.11 is the ip of the server and 00:0d:93:9d:31:54 is its mac address.
00:11:24:ca:9f:1e is the extra ethernet interface in the server that
isnt configured. It isnt checked in the network system prefs. This
is a 10.4.6 G5 Xserve. The duplicate ip address message stops after
about 20 minutes or so. I checked the switch the server is plugged
into, no errors on it and all appears fine. Thought maybe something
was looping, but no other complaints (that I have heard). My question
is is there a cronjob that runs to switch the multicast from one
interface to another? Or is there a hardware issue starting to show
itself with this server.
thanks,
ddh
